help for psave

psave

- A module that saves to CSV, DTA and documents dependencies using project to track dependencies of Input/Outputs and achieve efficient compilation of large projects.

psave
,
file(string) [com csvnone debug eopts(string) old(integer) preserve]

where

com compresses the database to save space without losing precision.

csvnone Don't store results in CSV format. If debug mode isn't specified will register DTA with project.

debug prevents psave from using project functionality. In debug mode psave will not save a CSV file.

eopts refers to standard options of export delimited.

old saves the dataset in an old STATA format.

preserve avoids clearing local memory.

Examples

Save DTA and CSV files with names "auto.dta" and "auto.csv", respectively. Note that init creates a global variable $deb with values "" (empty) or "debug".
init in "debug" mode turns off project functionality.

. psave, file("../constructed-data/auto") $deb

psave is intended to be used in conjunction with project, init, pexit and puse.
